Heres the recap of the last few days.
Last thursday we went to the Ben Thanh market and bought some presents for everyone and clothes for us for the orphanage. It was SO crowded and smelly like a fishy smell combined with something sweet. Then I accidently gave 100 000 dong to some girl and her brother. The next day we went for what we call our second breakfast. We walked to the Ben Thanh because my mom wanted to buy something and Nina wanted shoes. Across the street from the Ben Thanh there is an alley full of shoes. Lots of knock-offs but so what! there just shoes and the look like the brand name. Any way, we moved hotels on saturday night from the Indoshine to the Nam Phoung Hotel. On saturday we went to a beautiful pagoda that we went to 8 years ago. It had lots of enormous fish and hundreds of turtles! I took a zillion pictures. There are lots of cute dogs around but we are not allowed to pet them because of RABIES!!!!!! On sunday we took the hydrofoil from Ho Chi Minh City to Vung Tau. We are now settled in the really nice
Interco Resort. This morning we went into town and saw the beautiful sea side. I will write soon.

Hi Maeve & Family Mr. Begley and the Class here!!!
ReplyDeleteWe just read your posts and we were all excited to here that you are settled in to your Hotel.
Owen says hello..as does eveyone else but Owen said it first! 2 N Hannah wants to know how much 100 000 dong is and how you could accidentally give it to someone? Max is not paying attention to this note.
Miss you
